Hey mate,
With ncmpcpp, how do you get it to dynamically adjust field width to fit. My display always has at least one tag field cut short.

Exactly. Light.
That's what I was searching for.

how about some details, old bean?

Gnome 2.26.1 + Compiz-Fusion

Gtk theme is two lines up

Emerald theme is Frak

In the screen you see also Tint2, Mini Exaile with desktop cover plugin, Conky, and Pidgin with a different icon theme

Just tell me if you want something, old bean

add

song_list_format = "{$3[%l]$9} {$5%a$9} {$6%t$9} %y %r %n {$5%b$9}"

this line to your ~/.ncmpcpp/config

Hey mate,
With ncmpcpp, how do you get it to dynamically adjust field width to fit. My display always has at least one tag field cut short.

add

song_list_format = "{$3[%l]$9} {$5%a$9} {$6%t$9} %y %r %n {$5%b$9}"

this line to your ~/.ncmpcpp/config

Oh right! Of course. Thanks

I'm so used to column_list mode, that I nearly forgot about the default mode.. it looked sort of foreign to me haha.

edit: I do wish there was still a way to auto-fit-width columns.

Re: May 2009 Screenshots

Actually Flash is the only thing I was missing. gnash and flash 7 in Opera just can't cut it. I still love the damn thing and playing around with it in a virtual machine. I got a free partition still on this laptop...I might reinstall it just to know it's there if I ever get bored.
Also I never left Arch..and will probably not do so for a long time. I just dualbooted. I might do the same but it's sad to have to reboot to watch a flash movie..who knows...

Well in a sense yeah BSD flavours are like Linux flavours. FreeBSD is more popular yes, but OpenBSD and NetBSD do a good job as desktops too (NetBSD even has working flash...latest too I believe).
